NASHVILLE (AP) — Speaker Beth Harwell has presided over the House chamber despite breaking her ankle earlier in the day.

Harwell spokeswoman Kara Owen said the Nashville Republican injured herself while walking her dog Monday morning.

Harwell wore a brace on her left leg. She was pushed down the center aisle of the House chamber in a wheelchair when members took a break for caucus meetings.

Lawmakers hope to adjourn the 107th General Assembly this week. But they still have several issues left to resolve, including finding an agreement over the state's annual spending plan.
